Hello, everybody. Welcome to another episode of Christ with coffee on ice. I am your host,

Ali Yost, and I am thrilled to be here with you guys. If you are physically watching, you are

seeing again that our environment is a bit different. I've never brought you guys here before,

but this is my bedroom. I just felt like it. I felt like it. Well, actually, there were some

obstacles with being able to record in the studio today. And so last week, you guys saw everything that was happening, all the chaos with the fires. And we had to literally do last week's episode in a hotel room. But, you know, you can't stop us. I'm still going to be showing up for my girls. And we're just not stopping. We're not stopping. We're not letting the enemy stop us. And so this week, it's kind of like that again where there were some obstacles with being able to record in the studio. And so we are just, we're recording here. And I just wanted to be cozy. I didn't feel like doing all the lights, camera action, you know, with our normal setup.

When I do record here at the house, I just, I really wanted it to be just intimate and simple.

That is the gospel.

Intimate and simple.

That's Jesus.

And so that's what we're doing.

We're kind of representing that by just keeping it simple and intimate and just, ugh, just simple. That's Jesus. And so that's what we're doing. We're kind of representing that by just keeping it

simple and intimate and just, ugh, just simple. We do have our coffee on ice. Kind of looks like

chocolate milk. I put a lot of creamer in it. Oops. But we do have our coffee. But before all else,

we do have our Christ. We have our Bible here. We will be using this in the episode because I

always want to tie it back to scripture and the truth and the word. But guys, can we just have like a

girl hang? Sorry for our male listeners. I do believe that this is going to be relatable to men.

But unfortunately, I am a woman. And so I think like a woman. I talk like a woman.

And I just, I know a lot of you are gals. So I'm going to talk to my gals. But men, you are welcome.

You are welcome here. That is not me kicking you out. I just don't want you to be offended if I'm saying,

girl, because girl, can we just be girls right now I need to be a

girl I need to hang out with my girls I need to have an honest girl talk and the honest girl talk

of the day right now is like I just want to confront the elephant in the room because I know we all see it
